Bletchley Park financial problems

A recent Slashdot post talks about financial problems at Bletchley Park. Bletchley Park was home and workplace to Allied cryptographers in WWII. Some say that their success at deciphering German Enigma messages was responsible for the Allied victory against the Nazis. At the very least, their efforts probably significantly shorted the war (in the European theatre, anyway).

It's sad to me to see such an important historical site threatened. They'd probably turn it into condos and shopping centers.

new 7 wonders

A new seven wonders of the world have been selected. There's a pretty good wikipedia page with pictures and links for the 21 finalists. Apparently the voting is somewhat suspect, and it seems that Egypt was pretty annoyed by the whole thing (the pyramids of Giza are the only surviving monuments from the original seven wonders, and Egyptian officials didn't think the pyrimids needed to compete again).

And here's the wikipedia page for the ('original') seven wonders of the ancient world. Looks like earthquakes are pretty rough on these things.
